    really don’t see the point of having a metro system in this game. seems like it would just be even less convenient than driving or fast traveling.

      “Our direction when what we wanted to was make sure players have a way to really be in the world and have an immersive way to travel through the world,” said Sasko. “This is designed to be a role-playing feature.”

      It’s for Immersion. I’m all for it. It’s already a great game now, I’d love to see a subway system.

      I used the modded Metro System for my playthrough along with a mod that adds basic primary needs (hunger/thirst/sleep). Many of my favourite moments were realising it was late after doing a gig, hopping on the metro and watching the city as I rode back to the apartment for a night’s sleep.

      Small things like that really help me with immersion, so I’m really happy they added this officially.

      Its the same idea for stables in skyrim. Using them isnt ideal for speed, but there are users who prefer getting around via natural means rather than fast travel.
